Thank you for the clarification.

Sorry, I hadn't checked the bashref.html of the devel branch. Now I
have read the description. I think this is sufficiently clear, and in
particular, these examples are very useful to understand the actual
behavior. I like it. I couldn't find similar explanations or examples
for glob operators (*, ?, [, @(), etc.) of ${var#pat}, ${var%pat}, and
${var/pat} and anchors # and % of ${var/#pat} and  ${var/%pat}, but
maybe we can have similar examples also for those pattern strings.
